The other side.

Guang Xuelin and the others have already arrived at the exit.

It went very smoothly, and one by one I carefully crawled out of the hole, and I basically didn't encounter any trouble.

At this point, it seems that the rescue operation has been a complete success.

It wasn't long before someone noticed that something was wrong.

"By the way, what about Su Bai? Didn't he go in with you? Why didn't he come out together? ”

I counted the number of people, and there were exactly nine people.

"Huh? Didn't he just follow us? What about people? ”

"yes, I remember the ...... right behind him"

The people who came out first were stunned, looked left and right, and didn't find anything wrong.

But the man was gone.

Suddenly, a panic spread in my heart.

"That guy won't be in the ruins, will he?"

"I said that he should leave quickly, why are you still making trouble like a child?"

Someone went back to the entrance of the cave and shone a flashlight into it.

But the light seemed to be blocked by something, and I couldn't see too far at all, only some small gravel and mud fell into the hole, and a few pairs of messy footprints remained, but not much.

"Su Bai? Su Bai? ”

A few shouts were shouted, and the sound echoed inside for a long time, but there was no response.

"Is it possible...... Are we going to go down and find him? ”

The people who had just come out couldn't help but look at each other.

Professor Zhang stood up with a serious expression at this time: "He may have something to delay inside, let's take someone down to find him immediately, it should be too late." ”

As soon as the words fell, there was a rumbling sound from inside the ruins, and even the ground outside was shaking, as if there was an earthquake, which frightened several people away one after another.

"What's going on?"

"The hole has collapsed again!"

Someone exclaimed.

"Sure enough, there was a second collapse, but fortunately we evacuated in time." Guang Xuelin was next to him, secretly rejoicing as if he had survived the catastrophe.

He turned his head to look at Shen Suxian, who was calm beside him, but had always been staring at the entrance of the cave, secretly happy, and only felt that his trip was really worth it.

"Maybe Shen Suxian likes himself because of his hero saving beauty, then it's perfect!"

But Professor Zhang's face at this time was suddenly very ugly.

The current situation also means that Su Bai's chances of survival will be greatly reduced, although the rescue team is already on the way now, it will take a long time to get here.

He never thought that letting Su Bai go down to save someone ended up hitching himself up.

It's just that he still has some doubts that in his impression, Su Bai is not a willful person, and it doesn't seem like he would make such a move.

And......

He looked down at his mobile phone, which was the text message that Su Bai had sent to him when he was down there just now.

It's just that at this time, the information on it is a mess of incoherent words, and it is impossible to understand the meaning of it.

"What the hell is going on down here?"

There was a faint uneasiness in his heart.

"Professor Zhang!"

The voice came from behind him, and he noticed that he was too engrossed just now to notice that Shen Suxian had come behind him.

"What's wrong with Miss Shen?"

Shen Suxian smiled peacefully, very calm, not at all like someone who had just escaped death: "We just experienced this accident and are a little tired, we will not participate in the follow-up here, we plan to go back to the village to rest, I want to ask Professor Zhang if you want to come along?" ”

"I don't need to, my student is still down there, anyway, I'm going to stay here and figure out how to get him out......" Professor Zhang shook his head.

"Okay then."

Shen Suxian nodded, turned around and walked towards the bottom of the mountain with the other four rescued people.

It's just that now that the situation is urgent, no one has noticed that the few of them are the same in terms of demeanor and movements, and even the frequency of their steps is exactly the same, which looks inexplicably weird.

In addition, there were several other people on the mountain who also went down the mountain to rest, and Guang Xuelin was also one of them.

He felt as if Shen Suxian's attitude towards him had eased a lot since he was rescued, and he was secretly happy that he must have a good impression, and he was planning to continue to strike while the iron was hot and have a good chat to enhance his relationship.

……

In the empty and dilapidated corridor, Su Bai held a flashlight and walked slowly towards the dark depths step by step.

The sound of crisp footsteps echoed through the silent narrow hallway.

The walls and decorations on both sides gradually regained some color as he progressed, and later even a few fragments of the remaining frescoes appeared.

It's as if he's moving step by step from the black and white photos to the old days that were once prosperous.

He had already checked it just now, and the exit had been blocked again, so the rest of the people should have gone out, leaving him alone.

But there may be other people in this ruin.

"Now there are two possibilities, one is that the five people trapped here are all dead, and their bodies have been replaced by ghosts, which is the worst-case scenario."

"But there's another possibility, they're not dead, at least not all of them. It's just that they're lost somewhere here, and that ghost takes the opportunity to deliberately imitate their movements to confuse others......"

According to his speculation, the second is a little more likely.

After all, he believed that the people of the Persona Society had dealt with a lot of mysterious events over the years, and they would not be wiped out in an instant, and they would not even be able to send the slightest message.

And once he closes the Eye of Heaven, then the illusion in front of him will reappear, and it will turn into an endless corridor in front of him, as if to lead him to the abyss.

I believe that what others see is the same.

"But what's the point of this imitation?"

"Pop ......"

"Pop ......"

The sound of his footsteps echoed through the somewhat cramped and cramped environment.

He stopped suddenly.

"Delusion? Why do I seem to hear two footsteps? ”

It's just that the footsteps almost overlap together, almost making people subconsciously ignore the past.

It was only when he was very perceptive that he noticed this.

"Someone is following me?"

He jerked his head back, and behind him there was still a darkness that the light could not penetrate.

In the darkness, there was a faint sound of a rat like a mouse, and there seemed to be some distorted black shadow in the depths, which was so oppressive that it made people suffocate.

Su Bai didn't like to sit still, and after waiting for a while, the other party seemed to be very patient, so he simply walked over directly.

"Friend, if you have an opinion about me, it's better to come out and meet directly, don't hide."

He whispered, provocatively.

It's just that the other party obviously doesn't intend to pay attention.

Immediately, two almost overlapping footsteps rang out again.

When he advances, the other party advances, and when he retreats, the other party retreats.

He jumped twice, standing still, and the other reacted almost at the same time, and the footsteps overlapped perfectly.

But at this time, Su Bai suddenly moved his muscles and bones, and then without talking about martial arts, he began to accelerate with all his strength and sprint towards the front!
